1. Pic of Obama and his grandparents
You’ve probably all seen that picture of Obama seated between his maternal grandparents Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, supposedly taken in Central Park sometime in the early 1980s while the Dunhams were visiting Obama when he was a student at Columbia University.

The photo was among other family photos of Obama which were released by his presidential campaign in February 2008 (see Daily Mail (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-512430/Obama-releases-pictures-family-album-rides-Super-Tuesday-wave.html)). The photo is also in New Yorker editor David Remnick’s 2010 biography of Barack Obama, The Bridge.
Look at the picture again, carefully.
Do you see what’s weird in the picture?
Here’s a hint (see yellow circles):

Do you see how grandpa Stanley’s upper left arm is vertical, but his left hand is resting on Obama’s left shoulder?
Why don’t you try doing that to another person who’s about the same height as you — put your left hand on his or her left shoulder. Go ahead, try it!
What happened to your left upper arm? Did it stay vertical as Stanley’s arm did, or was it horizontal, stretched across your companion’s back?
It is anatomically impossible for Stanley Dunham to rest his left hand on Obama’s left shoulder while his (Stanley’s) left upper arm stays vertical. That means the picture had been altered by inserting the image of Obama between Stanley and Madelyn.
Here’s the original picture of only the Dunhams (below). Notice the following:
The fingers of Stanley’s left hand grasping his wife’s left elbow, which explains why his left upper arm is vertical.
The dark shadow between the Dunhams. That’s the phantom right knee of phantom Obama.
The wall behind Stanley’s right shoulder is black, without the two horizontal streaks (– –) in the photoshopped pic of Obama and the Dunhams.

Hilariously, Alex Pareene (and the commenters) of the left-wing Salon.com (http://www.salon.com/2011/04/07/birther_photoshop_fail/) derided“birthers” for asserting that the pic of Obama with the Dunhams had been photoshopped. Instead, Pareene says it’s the pic of just Stanley and Madelyn that was photoshopped. LOL
Hey, Alex Pareen! Do explain how grandpa Dunham can keep his left upper arm vertical while resting his left hand on Obama’s left shoulder!
In the video below, the narrator explains how the picture had been photoshopped:
2. Young Barry with dad Obama Sr. in Honolulu Airport
Here’s another at-once heartwarming and heartbreaking photo of 10-year-old Obama with his biological father Barack Hussein Obama Sr., supposedly taken in Honolulu International Airport when Sr. visited Hawaii during the 1971 Christmas holiday season. (Sr. had abandoned Jr. at birth.)
Notice the tips of Obama Sr.’s left hand, especially the finger nails.

Here’s a picture of Obama Jr.’s biological and briefly-married parents, Obama Sr. and Stanley Ann Dunham, in the same airport, presumably taken at the same time as the previous picture of Sr. with Jr.
Notice the tips of Obama Sr.’s left hand on Dunham’s left shoulder, especially the finger nails.

Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the finger nails of Obama Sr.’s left hand. The nails in the first pic (left) look completely different from the nails in the second pic (right) — white (instead of light brown) and misshapen.

An apparent mismatch between fingernail sets on Barack Obama Sr.’s left hand, captured in two ‘photographs’ purportedly snapped inside a Honolulu International Airport terminal, reveals that at least one of the images is likely a digital creation [….]
The image featuring Barack Obama Jr. appears to have been distributed by Reuters while the image featuring Dunham appears to have been distributed by the Associated Press, with the names of those wire services appearing in the bottom left corners of identical images served by Google and Bing search engines.
[…] the airport family gathering portrayed in these images of Barack Obama Sr.’s Honolulu arrival or departure likely never happened. Both airport images appear to have been manufactured, perhaps to propel the official narrative of Barack Obama’s family history as told in his memoir “Dreams from My Father (http://www.amazon.com/Dreams-My-Father-Story-Inheritance/dp/1400082773).”
Barack Obama Sr. is wearing the same suit and tie in both images, yet has completely different looking left ‘hands’. […]
Additional anomalies detected within the airport terminal images suggest that both images were likely assembled using a raster graphics editor computer application such as Adobe Photoshop.
The faces of all three individuals seen in the foreground of the images, Obama Sr., Obama Jr., and Stanley Ann Dunham, appear to have been photographed under different lighting conditions, suggesting that the images may be composites.
Artifacts and distortions observed along the edges of Barack Obama Sr. suggest masking problems during the creation of composite images. These include the ‘halo’ effect and distortions in the blending and ‘feathering’ of the human subject with the background.
There are also proportional problems, such as the similarity in size of the heads of Barack Obama Sr. and Jr. and the small, distant appearance of the airline agent(s) behind the counter.
The positions of Barack Obama Sr.’s left ‘arms’ appear unnatural in both images. His arm is wrapped around Obama Jr. in one image and around Dunham in the other image.
Obama Sr.’s right arm appears unnaturally narrow in the photograph with Dunham.
The airline agents behind the counter appear to possibly be the same person, but the different looking watches worn on each agent reveal that they are perhaps two different individuals.

Moreover, the appearance of the airport terminal and especially the overhead “San Francisco” sign behind Obama Sr. in the first pic, suggest to 1776 Channel that the airport in the photos might not even be Honolulu International Airport.
